Soul Land 3: Legend Of The Dragon King

Chapter 1821: Body Refinement

That was a feeling of evolution and ascension, and even though he could see a glimmer of what lied up there, he would be struck by a sense of impatient urgency whenever he delved into that feeling.

He finally understood why all Limit Douluos, especially those at the quasigod level, yearned so much for the Divine Realm; it was most likely due to this exact same feeling.

This feeling allowed them to sense something that others couldn’t perceive; it allowed them to sense another world, and that world was far too alluring for Soul Masters.

In the future, he was also going to pursue that level, as only after reaching that level would he be able to search for his family.

Upon becoming a Limit Douluo, one already had one foot in the realm of godhood, and according to historical records, a Limit Douluo only required the acknowledgment of a god and undertake the god’s trials of inheritance for a chance to reach the Divine Realm.

Of course, one would have to successfully complete those trials first, and these nine trials of the Sea God seemed to be trials of a similar nature.

According to the Tang Sect’s historical records, Tang San had completed his trials on an island known as the Sea God’s Island, but no detailed records existed of what the trials were comprised of. However, all of the records indicated that Tang San’s experiences on the Sea God’s Island were instrumental to his ascension to godhood.

If his father could do it, why couldn’t he do the same?

With that in mind, Tang Wulin was even more looking forward to completing the nine trials. If he could find a catalyst to ascension through these trials of the Sea God’s Trident, that would be ideal. If that were to happen, he wouldn’t have to fear the abyssal plane or anything else. Furthermore, he would be able to set off in search of the Divine Realm.

This thought filled Tang Wulin with a sense of anticipation, but right at this moment, he was struck by a burst of pain that snapped him out of his train of thought.

He opened his eyes, but before he could even see what was happening, he was struck by a string of bursts of sharp pain all over his body. He was then greeted by the sight of one water arrow after another shooting at him in a frenzy, and they were the cause of his pain.

Tang Wulin was left feeling rather speechless upon seeing this.

What was happening? Why was the seawater able to shapeshift? What kind of trial was this?!

As these thoughts sprang into his mind, the water arrows became more and more powerful, and much to his surprise, he discovered that these arrows were specifically targeting his acupoints.

Even with his Invincible Vajra Body, he was beginning to feel sharp pain, followed by a numb and itchy sensation that was even more difficult to endure than the pain.

Tang Wulin had thought that he would be able to complete this trial easily, but he was now beginning to realize that he had made a misjudgment.

A single one of these water arrows posed no threat to him, but there were far too many, and they showed no signs of stopping or slowing down!

All of his clothes had already been eradicated, and a series of red spots had appeared all over his skin from the repeated impacts of the arrows.

Should he use his dragon’s repulse to oppose the arrows?

That was the first thought that occurred to him. If he hadn’t intentionally withheld his dragon’s repulse, it would’ve already activated on its own.

However, he quickly rid himself of the thought as he trusted that his father was doing this for his sake.

Seeing as his father had chosen to blast his body with these things, then they had to be beneficial to him, just like the Body Sect’s body refinement methods.

Thus, after a brief bout of shock brought on by the pain, he was ecstatic, and he immediately repressed his Golden Dragon King bloodline aura and the power of his dragon core so they wouldn’t interfere with this process.

After attaining an Invincible Vajra Body, the most concerning thing wasn’t pain. Instead, it was a lack of pain.

In Tang Wulin’s experience, the body couldn’t be refined and further enhanced without pain.

The Invincible Vajra Body was A’Ruheng’s upper limit, as well as the upper limit of the Body Sect. Unless he could become a god and be nourished by immortal spiritual energy, there would be no way for him to improve further.

Tang Wulin had also thought that this would be his limit, but he was still experiencing pain here, which meant that his body still had room for improvement! What could be more encouraging than that?

Tang Wulin’s main objective for undergoing the Nine Trials of the Sea God was to improve himself and become more powerful, and he was getting exactly what he wanted.

Truth be told, he had been rather disappointed by how simple the fourth trial had been, but now, the disappointment was beginning to fade and transform into anticipation.

Each successive wave was more fearsome than the previous one, and the waves were taking on all types of different forms, such as heavy hammers, piercing spears, and sharp blades.

All of these water weapons were imbued with tremendous power, and Tang Wulin was constantly assessing his own body as he endured the waves.

With each wave that passed, he would be struck by a different sensation, transitioning between pain, itchiness, and numbness on repeat.

On top of the physical pain, his bloodline, meridians, and even internal organs were also being stimulated by the impact, constantly changing as a result.

The process was naturally quite tortuous, but his immense willpower was completely unshakeable. His bloodline began to circulate on its own, alleviating some of the pain while being enhanced by this process.

His body was like a piece of metal, while the waves were like forging hammers, constantly hammering his body to enhance his powers.

Time slowly passed by, and even Tang Wulin was in a great deal of pain, he was very thankful for this experience and was constantly adjusting his own physical state. He was unable to move, but he could still swivel around from side to side minutely, thereby allowing him to withstand the waves with all parts of his body, and this was something that pleased him greatly.

There was no way to measure the passage of time in this alternate world. His body transitioned over and over again between the states of pain, itchiness, and numbness, and if a normal person had been in his place, they would’ve already died countless times over, but he continued to persevere and endure.

During this process, his body began to undergo a series of slight changes.

Tang Wulin discovered that what was being altered the most wasn’t his body. Instead, it was the connection between his spiritual power and bloodline.

Under the relentless pummeling of the waves, his consciousness gradually fused into every single corner of his body. In the past, he could only move one or multiple body parts at a time, but now, as his spiritual power began to integrate itself with his body, he was gradually able to move even the minute hairs on his body.

This subtle change allowed him to perfectly control every single part of his own body.

Within the Silver Dragon King scale around his neck, the Ice God Bead was releasing a cool and refreshing aura to nourish his spiritual power. Thus, not only was his body being refined, so was his mind and spirit.

His spiritual power was already infinitely approaching the very pinnacle of the Spirit Domain realm, and at this level, what he required was further accumulation.
